Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine decoction piece screening technology, and in particular to a decoction piece screening device for the production of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) refers to substances used for the prevention, treatment, and diagnosis of diseases, as well as for rehabilitation and health maintenance, under the guidance of TCM theory. TCM mainly originates from natural medicines and their processed products, including plant-based, animal-based, and mineral-based medicines, as well as some chemical and biological products. Among these, prepared TCM slices are one of the three pillars of the TCM industry. They are an essential traditional tool for TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment, and also an important raw material for prepared Chinese medicines. Their unique processing theories and methods embody the profound wisdom of ancient Chinese medicine. With the continuous improvement and maturation of their processing theories, they have become an important means of disease prevention and treatment in TCM clinical practice. There is no absolute boundary between raw medicinal materials and prepared TCM slices. Prepared TCM slices include some sliced medicinal materials processed at the place of origin, whole medicinal materials, and slices that have been cut and processed. To improve the quality and grade of prepared TCM slices after production, screening and processing are necessary.
[0003] In the prior art, Chinese patent application number 202120711428.2 discloses a screening device for the production of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, including a base plate. A screening device body is fixedly installed on the right side of the upper surface of the base plate, and a feed funnel is fixedly connected to the side of the screening device body away from the base plate. A protective cover is fixedly installed on the left side of the screening device body. This invention utilizes the cooperation between a separating sieve plate, a vibrating motor, a spring, and a movable block. The vibrating motor drives the separating sieve plate to shake, causing the mixture of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces inside the separating sieve plate to collide with each other under inertia. This effectively breaks up the mixture, solving the problem of the mixture clumping due to moisture caused by rainy weather. Breaking up the damp mixture prevents mold growth, reduces waste and loss of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, and improves the pass rate of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned technical solutions are time-consuming and labor-intensive because the separation sieve plate can only hold and screen a certain amount of Chinese herbal medicine pieces when screening them. After each screening, the Chinese herbal medicine pieces inside the separation sieve plate need to be removed before they can be put in again for screening. Moreover, the screening continuity of Chinese herbal medicine pieces is poor, which greatly reduces the screening efficiency. Therefore, we propose a Chinese herbal medicine piece screening device for the production of Chinese herbal medicine pieces to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The two vibration motors 15 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the first screening box 9 and the second screening box 10, respectively.
[0035] With the above structure, by starting two vibrating motors 15, the first sieve box 9 and the second sieve box 10 can be driven to vibrate. Here, the sieve holes on the first sieve box 9 are larger than the sieve holes on the second sieve box 10, so that the Chinese herbal medicine pieces can be initially screened through the first sieve box 9. After the initial screening, the Chinese herbal medicine pieces will be discharged from the box 1 through the discharge hole 12 on the left and collected. The Chinese herbal medicine pieces that are screened will fall onto the second sieve box 10 for secondary screening. Finally, the Chinese herbal medicine pieces that are screened will be discharged from the box 1 through the discharge hole 12 on the right and collected. Finally, the fine impurities that are screened through the second sieve box 10 will fall into the slag collection box 16 at the bottom of the box 1 for collection.
[0036] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, discharge holes 12 are provided on the left and right inner walls of the box 1. The left end of the first sieve box 9 and the right end of the second sieve box 10 pass through the two discharge holes 12 respectively and are slidably connected to the inner wall of the discharge holes 12. By opening the discharge holes 12, it is convenient to discharge the screened Chinese herbal medicine pieces and to collect them.
[0037] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, baffle plates 13 are welded to the bottom of both the first sieve box 9 and the second sieve box 10. The two baffle plates 13 are in sliding contact with the left and right inner walls of the box body 1 respectively on the side away from each other. By setting baffle plates 13, the sieved Chinese herbal medicine pieces and impurities can fall to the outside of the box body 1 through the discharge hole 12.
[0038] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the quantitative component includes a drive motor 6 and a dispensing roller 7. The drive motor 6 is fixedly installed on the front side of the feeding pipe 4. The output shaft of the drive motor 6 passes through the front side of the feeding pipe 4 and is fixedly installed on the front end of the dispensing roller 7. The rear end of the dispensing roller 7 is rotatably connected to the rear inner wall of the feeding pipe 4. By starting the drive motor 6, the dispensing roller 7 can be driven to rotate, thereby realizing the quantitative feeding of Chinese herbal medicine pieces. The feeding speed is uniform and the feeding amount is moderate, without the situation of feeding too much or too little, ensuring stable screening of Chinese herbal medicine pieces and improving screening efficiency and effect.
[0039] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the distributing roller 7 is provided with multiple storage troughs 8 at equal intervals in a ring. By providing storage troughs 8, it is convenient to quantitatively store Chinese herbal medicine slices.

Simultaneously, during the feeding process, the drive motor 6 drives the distributing roller 7 to rotate, allowing multiple storage troughs 8 on the distributing roller 7 to continuously and quantitatively store the Chinese medicinal herbs and allow them to fall into the box 1. This method achieves quantitative feeding of Chinese medicinal herbs, with uniform feeding speed and appropriate feeding amount, preventing overfeeding or underfeeding, ensuring stable screening of the herbs, and improving screening efficiency and effectiveness. Then, when the Chinese medicinal herbs fall to the top of the first sieve box 9, the two vibration motors 15 are activated to drive the first sieve box 9 and the second sieve box... Box 10 vibrates. The sieve holes on the first sieve box 9 are larger than those on the second sieve box 10, allowing for primary screening of the Chinese medicinal herbs through the first sieve box 9. After primary screening, the Chinese medicinal herbs are discharged from the box 1 through the discharge hole 12 on the left and collected.
